    Where to buy foam applicator? (In retail store)

    I was using Meguiar's foam pads from Walmart to apply Zaino and other polishes with really good result. (Yes, I know many prefer the cotton applicators for Zaino, but not me..). Well, walked into Walmart yesterday and found that they no longer seem to carry the cheap 2pk I was using before...
